Abstract:

The leaves of Acacia nilotica (L.) Delile was extracted with methanol and aqueous medium and studied for in vitro antimicrobial property. The methanol extract was found to be most active against all the bacterial species tested except S.aureus. Active methanol extract was further studied for HPTLC fingerprint and by phytochemical analysis. HPTLC analysis confirmed segregation of four individual compounds with individual Rf values and peak area percentage. The results of phytochemical screening of extract revealed the presence of Tannins, Carbohydrates and Glycosides. This analysis revealed the high antibacterial activity in the methanol extract of Acacia nilotica (L.) Delile


Key words: Acacia nilotica (L.) Delile , HPTLC finger printing, methanol, MIC, microorganisms
